Student data privacy in schools: why on-site AI is the only safe architecture
Australian children's data is uniquely valuable to bad actors. Cloud-based AI tools create structural privacy problems that policy alone cannot fix. Here is why on-site AI inference is the only responsible architecture for school tools.
WorkforceThe teacher burnout crisis: 73.9% burnout rates and what technology can actually fix
Nearly three quarters of Australian teachers have moderate-to-high burnout. The federal government projects a shortage of 4,100 secondary teachers. Workload is the single biggest cause — and technology can fix specific parts of it.
AI & TeachingAI is a tool, not a teacher: what schools actually need from technology
The AI-replaces-teachers narrative misunderstands what schools do. Teachers cannot be replaced. But their logistics gap — delivering individualised feedback and assessment at scale — can be closed.
EvidenceEvidence-based teaching: response to intervention, teacher clarity, feedback and the Science of Reading
IndiLearn applies the most powerful evidence-based approaches: response to intervention (1.29), teacher clarity (0.9), feedback (0.7), and the Science of Reading. Here is how each one maps to a product decision.
School AutonomySchool-based decision making: why edtech that dictates practice is failing schools
Commercial programs that require scripted delivery and expensive professional learning de-skill teachers and ignore local context. IndiLearn is built to work with schools — not tell them what to do.
TechnologyThe phonics speech recognition problem: why no existing solution works — and how IndiLearn is solving it
Capturing isolated grapheme-phoneme production from young readers is technically unsolved by standard speech recognition. Here is what IndiLearn built — and why it matters for Australian classrooms.
ArchitectureOn-premise AI for schools: data sovereignty, predictable cost, and the on-site server case study
A 600-student school amortises local AI hardware in under four months and pays nothing per query after that. Here is the architecture decision that changes the economics of AI in schools.
